12m S=0m E, -12m N
15m 55d E of N = 15 sin 55, 15 cos 55 N
Sum= (15sin55)m E, (-12 + 15 cos 55)m N
Answer: THE ANSWER IS C!
The total energy of a system can decrease only if energy leaves the system.
Explanation: Apex!
The formula for kinetic energy is equal to 1/2mv^2, where "m" is the mass of the object (in kilograms) and "v" is equal to the velocity of the object (in meters per second). To calculate the speed, simply plug in the values and solve.
KE = 0.5mv^2
304 J = 0.5(0.3 kg)v^2 -mass converted from grams to kilograms
v = 45.02 m/s
The baseball is travelling about 45.02 meters per second.
Hope this helps!
